Dortmund v PSG Preview

Dortmund’s Form

Dortmund are 5th in the Bundesliga with 5 games remaining, 12 points back of fellow Champions League Semi-Finalists Bayern and 24 points back of Bundesliga Champions Leverkusen. With 3 games left in the league, it’s very unlikely they will move from 5th. Despite this poor league form, they’re 3 games away from landing their second Champions League and their first since 1997.

Dortmund were landed in Champions League Group F which quickly became dubbed the "Group of Death" with PSG, Milan and Newcastle United. It turned out to be very much that in an extremely competitive group but Dortmund would win out with their 11-point total coming ahead of PSG, Milan and Newcastle. It was a sign of how dangerous they could be in cup competitions.

At the Round of 16 stage, a 1-1 draw against PSV in Eindhoven and a 2-0 win in the second leg meant they booked their place in the Quarter-Final. Having been handed a tough draw against Atlético a 2-1 first-leg defeat meant they had it all to do in the second leg. However, a brilliant performance saw them win 4-2 on the night and 5-4 on aggregate to book a date with PSG in the semi-final.

Dortmund come into this fixture following their 4-1 humbling at the hands of RB Leipzig at the weekend. Leipzig were deserved winners too with their 21 shots amassing an XG of 2.75 to Dortmund's 12 shots and 1.78. Dortmund now only have 7 points from their last 5 league games.

Dortmund have overcome the odds throughout the competition and will need to do that again against PSG if they are to advance to the final.

PSG’s Form

PSG have dominated domestically for longer than a decade having won 10 of the last 11 Ligue 1 titles with their latest league success confirmed at the weekend following a 3-3 draw against La Havre. They can now concentrate their full efforts on the Champions League in the closing weeks of the season.

To reach this stage of the Champions League they finished runner-up in the “Group of Death” behind Dortmund but ahead of Milan and Newcastle before dispatching Real Sociedad 4-1 on aggregate in the Round of 16. Their Quarter-Final against Barcelona was a thriller and following a 2-3 first leg defeat they recovered to land a historic 1-4 win over Barcelona to book their spot in this semi-final..

While PSG had a 3-3 draw at the weekend, they could consider themselves a little unlucky not to have landed the win with their 17 shots amassing an XG of 2.26 compared to La Havre’s total of 1.21 from 6 shots.

PSG have a huge opportunity to reach another Champions League final in this two-legged tie.

Key Players To Watch

Nico Schlotterbeck – Dortmund

Since signing from Freiburg for a reported €25 million transfer fee back in May 2022 he has been an impressive defensive force at the back after playing a bit part role in his first season he has been a regular for the last two. His defensive aptitude. tackling and passing will be crucial against the poignant attacking threat PSG impose.

Kylian Mbappé – PSG

It couldn’t be anyone else, could it? Arguably the best player in the world right now he has 43 goals and 10 assists across 44 games in all competitions this season and will be looking to add to his tally of 8 goals in 10 games in the Champions League.

Dortmund v PSG Prediction & Best Bet

Prediction: Dortmund 0-2 PSG

This is a repeat of their Group Stage clashes earlier in the tournament. Despite PSG being unbeaten in their games losing 2-0 in Paris before drawing 1-1 in Germany, Dortmund did win that same group.

Due to how the draw for the Champions League has gone, this is a huge opportunity for either side to make the final.

PSG have a lot more quality in their side though especially going forward so I think they will be comfortable winners over both legs.

Best Bet: PSG -1 @ 7/2
